Accept democracy warts and all

There are those in Pakistan who are asking president Zardari to resign - grow up, he was elected by your representatives for five years. There are those who are angry at MQM winning again in Karachi - swallow it, MQM has a (a bit dented, but still) healthy vote bank in urban Sind. There are those unhappy at PTI getting into bed with Jama'at Islami in KPK, suck it - its their democratic right to enter into coalition with whoever they think they can work with. Accept democracy warts and all - or don't claim to be a democrat. Leadership in civilian clothes is way better than one in Uniform.
